	Kaikohe
		I emailed a few Servas hosts in New Zealand near each of the locations and Kaikohe seemed to be in a a good location with some of the features we thought were important - library, stores, internet access....The higher number of Maori’s attracted us too as we wanted to know more about different cultures.
		Initial reactions from Kiwis in Auckland about Kaikohe were met with quiet looks or gasps or stories of a high crime area where one could not leave a car unlocked.
		For the most part, these reactions were by people who had never been to Kaikohe - the reason that travel and actually seeing and living in a place with ones own eyes is so important.

		Ah, yes: there is a harsh, strangely lyrical beauty to be found at the speedway: the mangling impacts and hoicking engines; the expert hoons clustered 'round raised hoods; the lone girl standing at a wire mesh fence, solemnly licking an ice cream as she watches the carnage in the mud.
		And he also picked up some highly useful demolition pointers, such as how to use a chainsaw to add more tread to your tires; in addition, ramming boot-first is best (less likely to damage the precious radiator, eh).

	Entertainment: Movies: Kaikohe Demolition
		Set in the quiet and unassuming Northland town of Kaikohe, the film follows three Kiwi blokes (Uncle Bimm, Ben Haretuku and John 'Derby King' Zielinski), as they share their passion for smashing up old cars in the town's "most rock 'n roll event" - the Kaikohe Demolition Derby.
		Much of the doco is filmed at the local hot pools where the Uncle, John and Ben relax with their mates after the derby, swap stories, and have a few laughs.
		For a relatively poor town with not much going for it at first glance, Kaikohe comes across as a tight-knit, harmonious community, and by the end of the film the characters feel like family.

		Kaikohe made world news in 1991 when children there attacked Santa in the Christmas parade.
		It’s not an easy image to dislodge, one of the locals admits ruefully, but if anything can do the trick it is Florian Habicht’s empathetic, funny account of small-town life on the poverty line, as told by those living it.
		The only violence in this Kaikohe occurs at Demolition Derbys, which seem to coincide with every festive date on the calendar, including Mother’s Day.

		The Board acknowledged the advertiser's submission that the omission of the word 'inland' on page 21 was a typographical error but it also noted that in all other material on Kaikohe, and in all other respects, the word "inland" had been included.

		In amongst the costume dramatics, art house minimalism and emotive documentaries was a little film about a bunch of friends and families in the Far North who like nothing better of a Sunday afternoon than to ram each other in stripped out cars that have seen better — much better — days.
		We meet Kaikohe characters like Uncle Bimm and John Zielinski, Ben Haretuku and a myriad other locals who race their battered old Holdens’, Valiants’ and Hillmans around a mud track in the hope of smashing into the opposition so much and with such force the opponents car will be rendered unmoveable.
